Playoff Predictions Update

Ok, with the first round of the playoffs completed and the second round underway, it is time to evaluate how my picks ended up. Let’s see how I did shall we. I will have my prediction on the left of the match-up and the actual result on the right of the match-up.

Western Conference

First Round
(4-1) [1] San Antonio Spurs vs. [8] Sacramento Kings (4-2)
(4-1) [2] Phoenix Suns vs. [7] Los Angeles Lakers (4-3)
(0-4) [3] Denver Nuggets vs. [6] Los Angeles Clippers (1-4)
(4-1) [4] Dallas Mavericks vs. [5] Memphis Grizzlies (4-0)

Eastern Conference

First Round
(4-0) [1] Detroit Pistons vs. [8] Milwaukee Bucks (4-1)
(4-0) [2] Miami Heat vs. [7] Chicago Bulls (4-2)
(4-3) [3] New Jersey Nets vs. [6] Indiana Pacers (4-2)
(3-4) [4] Cleveland Cavaliers vs. [5] Washington Wizards (4-2)

So, overall my predictions were solid. I picked 7 of the 8 winners and 5 of 8 of the series were correct or within one game. Hopefully, I am better in te second round.


I would also like to congratulate the Suns for coming from down 3-1 in the series to beat the Lakers and congratulate them on winning game one of the second round against the Clippers by a score of 130-121. Go Suns!!!
